Description
"Salvador Dali est un artiste célèbre, mais il représente surtout et avant tout un mythe. Un mythe du XXe siècle, comme cette époque a su les créer et les porter à leur point d'exaltation maximal, avant de les intégrer clans la légende dorée de la modernité. Dali a lui-même participé à l'élaboration de ce mythe, en dédiant l'intégralité de sa vie publique à la construction infatigable de son image. Mais le talent et les excentricités d'un artiste ne suffisent pas à créer un mythe populaire, l'époque tout entière doit y contribuer et s'y trouver synthétisée. Faisant corps avec lui, son oeuvre est le sismographe de l'âme de Dali comme de celle de son temps." L'auteure nous propose de redécouvrir ce Don Quichotte du XXe siècle à la lumière de cette période fascinante et complexe, tout en nous révélant son actualité contemporaine. Sa réflexion s'achève sur un chapitre consacré aux résonances de Dali chez les artistes actuels, de Jeff Koons à Ryan Trecartin, en passant par Damien Hirst."--P. [4] of cover.
